You know when someone nit picks like you and works it into a spin, I don't belive anything you say and this becomes a waste of time........................ there is no debate here.

You have a nice day.

Well, but did Romney mean it was too rapid of a withdrawal or too slow?

Asking for clarification and/or actual facts is nit-picking?
I really feel like I was trying to work it OUT of a spin....but I could be wrong, too.

I don't belive anything you say and this becomes a waste of time........................

I don't expect you to believe a word I say...not even on a personal level. Just because I say it does not mean you have to believe it, agree with it, or even acknowledge it. It is completely up to you and I say that without rancor.

there is no debate here.

Well...no...there isn't.
The start of a debate would require challenges being made and countered...and vice versa...so on and so on.
With courtesy and in a generally equivalent fashion between you and I.

I don't know what you would call the type of exchange you and I have engaged in...I think I would call it futile and if I had had any sort of foresight whatsoever, I would have totally ignored your initial comment about the DNC being full of hate and anger...it isn't like I didn't know where that vibe was coming from.

I get what I deserve, I suppose.

You have a nice day.

You do the same.

Did you keep count?

I counted using the transcript of both Obama's speech and Romney's speech, too, just to be fair and have comparison.

Here are my results...

Obama
I, I'm, I've, I'll = 64
My = 20
Me = 41
Mine = 0
Us = 33
We, we've, we're, we'll = 109
Our(s) = 64
You, your, you're = 83

Romney
I, I'm, I've, I'll = 58
My = 28
Me = 3
Mine = 2
Us = 10
We, we've, we're, we'll = 55
Our(s) = 2
You, your, you're = 44



(Since I did watch both conventions and also both speeches, I know that the transcripts were accurate and complete...and blah blah blah...all those pollster disclaimer phrases might be applicable here...with a possible margin of error about + or - 1, let's say... because I used Microsoft Word to do the counting. I was going to do some stats using total word count but the transcripts had extra stuff that came from the crowd in both cases and I didn't feel like weeding all that out for accuracy's sake.)
